Uriel was quite startled as he almost ran into Pestilence upon entering the library. Taking a couple of hasty steps back in shock, he then stared at the horseman for a second. Then, he blinked, trying to regain his composure.

For quite some time he tried to find something to say, watching Pestilence in silence. "You wanted to see me," he finally said quietly. It took a conscious effort not to touch his scars again. He might have had a weakness, but at least he wasn't about to show it to everybody. Not as long as he remembered to keep his fingers away from his wrists, anyway.
